KDawg Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 7 hours ago, SkinsWmsbg said: No. He looks OK because our D line is eating up every block there is. After the Eagles game what I saw with my personal eye test was that the Eagles didn't do exactly what they wanted to do but they were able to make plays on offense... but I didn't see the nitty gritty. I then listened to the Pat Mcafee show and I listened to A.J Shipley's take on the game. And while I didn't see any huge plays from Allen and Payne, Shipley pointed out Philly couldn't do anything they WANTED to do because of those two guys on defense. They wrecked the game and I didn't even notice. I'm almost thinking we have to figure out some way to pay Payne to keep him. It's been a couple decades since we've drafted a STUD DT like we have and we have 2 of them. They make teams who are only good at running the ball not have any offensive game at all. I’m not sure how you don’t notice Allen and Payne wrecking every game. But they’ve done that all year. Holcomb is not as good as people want him to be. Hard nosed guy, quality player all things considered but he’s a fringe starter/backup type for mostly every other NFL team. Maybe he took some down time to study some tape, we’ll see. But the D has been better minus WJ3 and Holcomb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Est.1974 Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 Atlanta looked pretty good to me. That’s going to be a very tough game IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BatteredFanSyndrome Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 I loathe having to play Dallas in what could likely be a win and in game for this team. That’s the only matchup on the schedule where I simply can’t talk myself into a win. I can see our defense holding their own but I don’t see 3 yards and a cloud of dust being successful against their defense at all. Of course, I can also see losing every other game on the schedule as well, due to our margin for error being so thin. The 49ers in Cali won’t be easy either. But the Cowboys seems like the worst matchup for our style of play. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about that Minny game week before last, and how they've played (and gotten smashed since) makes you think we wouldn't have a chance in a rematch against them? I guarantee you that Minny wants no part of a 7-seed Skins team in the wild card round. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey anything can happen in the paloffs!!! 🚀🚀 I don’t think it is though. Paloffs is now means you have to win out because every game is an elimination game. They aren’t going to win out. I wouldn’t mess with the Paloffs magic. Paloffs will only be now when they have to win out. Frankly, if they win their next 3 (sweep the z giants would seem unlikely) Paloffs might never be now, they might just make the playoffs the normal way, without having to win 5 games in a row at the end of the season.

We will probably lose a game we aren’t expecting either Atlanta or Cleveland. 7th seed is a likely rematch with Minny and a quick exit. Eagles would have to collapse to not be division winners. You said we wouldn’t win three games this season about six weeks ago, so… 🤣 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't have to win out (or even have a realistic chance of winning out) in order for the "paloffs" to be now. I remember back in 2005 when one of the WP sports writers said in an article that fans were delusional for thinking the team could win their last 5 games and make the playoffs. It was right around the time the original "Paloffs is Now" thread was started and we wondered if the thread played any role in that part of the article lol...

Warhead36 Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 Defense travels in the playoffs. I wouldn't concede anything. At the very least, its fun to talk about. Beats talking draft prospects at least. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88Comrade2000 Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 With a new owner sometime in 23; the paloffs era is over. Once the team is built; this team will be contending from the start and not having to go on runs to make the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now we don't know who would be playing who...but Philly, Giants, and Seahawks (and I guess us) are teams with the realistic possibility of weather being a real factor. If you consider the regular season games needed to even get TO the playoffs, then 3 of the remaining 6 games could have weather being a factor.
